Subject: .sig at end?

hi, i'm a relatively new user of pine (3 months), and i have
a simple problem/question.  when i reply to a message, my
.sig appears -above- the quoted message, rather than below.
my sysadmin says he's always seen this behavior, but i think
it's kinda wacky (elm always put the .sig at the end).

anything i can do about this?  i'm a very experienced unix
user, if that helps any.  and yes, i did read pinerc and
the FAQ :).  thanks for any help, Steve

[censored]

less .pinerc reveals this:

############################### Preferences ################################

# List of features; see Pine's Setup/options menu for the current set.
# e.g. feature-list= select-without-confirm, signature-at-bottom
# Default condition for all of the features is no-.
############################### Preferences ################################

# List of features; see Pine's Setup/options menu for the current set.
# e.g. feature-list= select-without-confirm, signature-at-bottom
				             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

less secrets.txt ->

     * The "signature-at-bottom" feature only applies to Replies. It is
       not possible to force your signature to the bottom of the included
       text in a Forward.

Enjoy.

       On the package it said: "Requires MS Windows 3.11 or better"

Your sysadmin sounds kind of clueless.

 >the FAQ :).  thanks for any help, Steve

While in pine, go to the main menu, type 's', then 'c', then read all the
wonderful config options.  You will find one of them does what you are
looking for.
